you don’t really watch the VC count so much, you pretty much need the capitols (berlin+rome, moscow, Japan, UK, or DC) plus key territories in order to make the VC count.

Most people prefer 1941 to be honest. Most people like to have all their fighting in Europe. In 1942 japan doesn’t have 9 fighters and 3 carriers so the pacific campaign fairs much better.

@Col.:

I’m not saying that it expalins everything perfectly, but with how many times he mentioned clarity of the rulebook it sounds more like he jumped into the game without the instructions and is asking for help along the way. It just doesn’t sound like he read it to me.

It’s about learning styles… some of us prefer to learn by reading, others by practice 🙂

Eh?  :?

I do not know if the Alpha 2 rules apply to Europe 1940 as they are written specifically for Global 1940.  Certain changes may have disproportionate effects on the game if you remove Japan, Australia and India from the picture.

However, perhaps the Europe half of the “Kill America First” strategy would be beneficial here (assuming Alpha 2 applies to Europe version.)

Nutshell Description: 10-13 Transports and accompanying fleet in SZ 91 which is in range of Canada, United States, Gulf of Mexico, Brazil and England.  You can have the 20-26 troops split between Morocco and Gibraltar as you see fit.

Nutshell Goals: Split the allied forces to defend more territories; snipe American and British National Objectives; threaten the US directly (encouraging ground units instead of naval units to be purchased); secure the Med; Allow the Italians to come out and join you (great for dealing iwth Allied navies!  Can open with the Italians, go for the meat with the Germans.)

Sea zone 6 and Manchuria are not adjacent.  See the FAQ.
